Office: 1S-209 phone: (718) 982-3615 Office hours: Wednesdays 12 - 2:30pm |
Course Time and Place:
Wednesdays: 2:30pm - 4:25pm in 1S-103 https://juliabox.org/ https://mth229.github.io/ http://www.math.csi.cuny.edu/MATLAB/Login |
Julia: To use Julia from your browser, click here: https://juliabox.org/ and log in with your google account. (See below for other ways to access Julia.)
Projects: There are 10 projects due. The projects are available at https://mth229.github.io/
You can also get notes that accompany each project from http://mth229.github.io The actual work that must be submitted is from an ipython notebook file meant to be run in IJulia. For example, the first project looks like this link. But the notes for that project are here.
To get a project notebook into JuliaBox, use either one of these two ways (for all the projects at once if you want):
To work on your project, click on IJulia in JuliaBox, and click on the *.ipynb file. If you don't see your project, click on the "Refresh" icon in the upper right corner. If asked by IJulia, choose Julia version 0.3.* for now.
To submit your project, use the CSI MATLAB project grading site at http://www.math.csi.cuny.edu/MATLAB/Login Keep both the ipython notebook open and the MATLAB grading project tab open so that you can copy and paste your answers.

Help: Email is the best way to contact me. Stop by during my office hours. Free math tutoring is also available (http://www.math.csi.cuny.edu/Students/Tutoring).
Attendance: Attendance is mandatory.
Disability policy: Qualified students with disabilities will be provided reasonable academic accommodations if determined eligible by the Office for Disability Services. Prior to granting disability accommodations in this course, the instructor must receive written verification of student's eligibility from the Office of Disability Services, which is located in 1P-101. It is the student's responsibility to initiate contact with the Office for Disability Services staff and to follow the established procedures for having the accommodation notice sent to the instructor.
